SZA gave Kendrick Lamar his flowers on the latest stop of their Grand National tour in Maryland.
During the portion of the concert where both stars are on stage, SZA reflected on how valuable her former TDE labelmate has been to her career so far.
Getting emotional, SZA said: “He put me onto the biggest moment of my life. This is also the biggest moment of my life… I’m so thankful, and I’m so thankful to y’all.”
The two “Luther” collaborators then shared a close hug before continuing to perform.

Sitting down for a chat with Chappell Roan for Interview Magazine, SZA has confessed to suffering from anxiety.
She said: “Every time I had to go on stage, every time I had to get on a carpet, I’d have full-on panic attacks. I used to not show up to something because it was like, ‘I’m never going to win. No one cares that I’m here. Why would I go?’”
The TDE singer said those issues spilled over into her tour with Kendrick: “Same thing with the Kendrick tour. Everybody’s going to see Kendrick. I don’t even know if I have anything to show these people that’s exciting and new.”
The “Kill Bill” superstar went on to say that she was doing much better: “Now it’s just like, ‘Fuck it. I don’t have anything else to do, and I want to see where this door is going to lead.’ I want to walk through the door. I want to see what happens in the uncertainty.”

The duo recently took the Grand National tour to Drake’s hometown of Toronto.
It was Kendrick’s first time performing in the Canadian city since his beef with Drake kicked off last year and he did not save any special treatment for the 6 God nor make any changes to his set.
K. Dot performed now infamous diss track “Not Like Us” to a rapturous reception inside the Rogers Centre with fans vocally chanting for an encore by the end of the lengthy show.
